Social Services Division provide residential care for older people who are experiencing difficulty living at home.
- The care can be for a single short period after a spell in hospital or serious illness.
- It can be for a short period whilst the carer is on holiday or needs a break.
- It can be arranged on a regular basis if this will enable the person to remain at home longer.
- It can also be on a permanent basis
- We also offer a good neighbourhood scheme where you can spend part of the day in the home and join in activities. There is a charge for meals taken. The homes do not supply or pay for transport to and from the premises
